Minnesota fans are stuck with the Pohlads for the foreseeable future, finally stripping any last semblance of hope for the Twins’ immediate future. John and Ben break down the impact of the decision both short and long term, and whether Pablo Lopez, Joe Ryan, and Ryan Jeffers will be on the team in 2026 as a result. Plus they look at some positives for these last 6 weeks (Zebby Matthews and Luke Keaschall) and how the Twins can still set themselves up for success in 2026. Finally, they rank the morality and ethics of each member of the Pohlad family (just kidding, John wouldn’t take the bait).
